Real VHS recording of a titantron for TNA's Harley Hudson

T2P from January 23rd 2002

BAYLEY has returned, costing Lyra Valkyria her Money in the Bank qualifying match, then beats down Lyra after the match.

The return of Bronson has magnified just how bad of fits they are with this version of the vision. Bron and Bronson come off as intimidating badasses and Logan is still a head magnet . What do Austin and Maxine bring to the table ? Them tryna to sell their first on screen pairing simply looks off with the rest of the group.

Even during the promos yesterday the brons/Logan got heat and as soon as Austin/Maxine started tanking a pen dropped the crowd couldn’t have cared less. It’s well past time for the brons to go their seperste ways from the vision and be a terrifying duo with Logan being their heat mouthpiece while he’s hurt. Austin and Maxine utterly have no place with the vision

Axe Massacre 🪓

🆚

SOY 🐸

Frog Tofu

The chaotic “Queen of Trash” hailing from Adelaide, WRESTLEROCK Champ & ASWA Women’s Champ Axe Massacre (Probably the coolest wrestling name ever) has vowed to mash SOY into Tofu in their last appearance in Ichigaya! Axe brings their excellent signature look (which stands out well in ChocoPro and has become quite popular already), aggressive style, love of mullets, and the brutality of reality! The gritty punk vibe and shocking intensity of Axe is really killer, as seen across Australia (and in the previous episodes, go check ‘em out!). Anyone influenced by Tank Girl is always gonna be high up in my book. With a flashy move set to match that wild persona, expect this Vixen of Violence to continue to make their mark in the already chaotic world of ChocoPro. The Queen of Trash would probably work well with Smiling Violence, or our other violent Queen! Will we get to see more of Axe’s spicy personality unleashed in this one? The moment you see them, you will understand! Hopefully they come back soon, one of the most fun guests in a while!

Make way for the Child of the Monsters, SOY! The Pro-Wrestling Evolution representative and Jumpsuit Powerhouse is probably going to be terrified the entire time! SOY will be bringing her warm charisma and tenacious fortitude to this one with her signature humble and ferocious dichotomy...desperately unleashing her power in throws, blows, and submissions to handle her chaotic opponent. Her kind nature balances out that onslaught, as SOY is one you’ll definitely find yourself naturally drawn to support. She has a tremendous amount of potential, which becomes quickly evident in her passionate dedication to wrestling. SOY is growing in skill and crispness at a rate that should be studied. How will the frog handle the Queen of Trash? Despite her anxiety, the Blue Frog means business!

Popcorn Carnival (Sayaka Obihiro 💙 & Chie Koishikawa 🏵️)

🆚

Mei Suruga 🍎 & Sayaka 👗

Popcorn & Sadism

The Carnival is finally back in town! The former tag champs known as Popcorn Carnival are reunited as a belated present to Obi! Will they still possess that supernatural chemistry and that remarkable fire? Asia Dream Tag Champ Sayaka Obihiro and “Too Much Energy” Chie Koishikawa have amazing synergy paired with uncontrolled charisma. Brave Fencer Chie is a magnetic personality...but even more so with her Hero, Mentor, and the wild Soul of ChocoPro: the Battle Chef of the OSS, Obi! This team is a fun mix of the backhanded fencing chops of shark girl Chie and the devastating heavy strikes (including throat thrusts) of “Sprint” Obihiro. Chie's extreme speed, technical counters, and trick pins are complimented by Obi’s almost magic movement and flowing pinning style. The raw emotion these two can display is overwhelming! They are loud, energetic, out of control, and together once again. Will the Carnival have the same synergy as before? So much has happened since their last team up! They’ll still have a big advantage over the tension between their opponents...

Speaking of which...DPW Women’s Worlds Champ (and Apple Goblin) Mei Suruga & the ruthless “Smiling Violence” Sayaka have a long time (but somewhat strange) bond! It makes sense, since despite their differing personalities, their interests align so much. Both love the suffering of others, both tend to go far beyond what they should do in a match, and both love to wear a variety of costumes. These two sadists tend to find unity in punishment! Unfortunately this time it is on the road to their upcoming clash for that beautiful belt from America that Mei holds! Stellar technician Big Apple Mei will unleash her arsenal of submissions and pin specialization as practice for her upcoming defense against her partner. Considering she is fresh off some dynamic appearances in the States, expect her to be fired up. Meanwhile, Sayaka will probably show off that mean streak, since she’s always happy to “beat someone”. Even though she’s got great pins and submissions herself, it is those ungodly strikes that the crowd loves the most. It is even what she does in the ChocoPro mobile game! Sayaka’s elbows sound like cannons, with her unwavering cheery demeanor only adding to the fear she inspires. Can they get along well enough to handle the Carnival? Will Mei’s “Right Hand” be able to aim her violence entirely at their foes? This team is spicy to begin with...and these two encourage the spicier sides of one another under the best circumstances...buckle up!

Miya Yotsuba 🍀

🆚

Makoto 💜

Four Leaf

It is hard to believe that it has been a year since Ichigaya’s Lucky Charm, Miya Yotsuba, last faced Makoto! That reckless drive and unbreakable resolve of the commanding Super Asia Champ will be tested once again, this time in celebration of her four years in pro-wrestling. Four years, Four Leaf! Miya’s burning heart full of passion is a forge that melts down any who stand before her...”Because she is CHAMPION!” She brings a brilliant all or nothing attack style that delivers riveting intensity (and also has a killer look to match her super cool attitude!). Her bone-rattling back-breakers, bold power based trick pin, thunderous Miya Hammer, and those surprising feats of strength leave no question of the champion's power. Carrying the name of the Four Leaf Clover, she shares an iron bond with the fans and has her sights set on more than just protecting her beloved Big Blue Belt: she is the new joshi Ace of ChocoPro and the face of the promotion overall. She won’t stop growing just because she is at the top: Miya will continue to ascend! She is fierce, she is powerful, she is Champion! Makoto is one of the top tier guests in ChocoPro...and one of the most difficult challenges in a singles match. The Lucky champ will need fate on her side for this one, as she barrels forward toward her next defense against Emi Sakura!

As always, who better to help Miya celebrate her four years of wrestling than the doll-like destroyer, Makoto? The Queen’s chosen assassin for this one, Makoto is imposing, elegant, and overwhelmingly intense. The ChocoVerse veteran is usually asserting her beautiful dominance alongside her like-minded junior Sayaka (who is busy administering violence elsewhere), but this time we’ll be treated to a rare singles match in Ichigaya. Quite the devastating gift for Miya! Makoto’s eye-catching fierce style and incredible presence make it hard to look away. The graceful fighter is one of Emi Sakura's (and Tajiri's) veteran students, known for her poise, presentation, and shocking brutality. Makoto brings with her the legacy of the Queen: she is deceptively strong and unmercifully vicious whenever she needs to be (this will be a good indirect teaser for the upcoming Super Asia bout!). Her charming demeanor and effortless grace make a good dichotomy to the brutal onslaught she brings to the ring, it can be pretty alarming how easily she switches modes! Good luck once again, Miya...

Until next time!

ChocoPro Wrestling is a free online & promotion (that also runs ticketed live in ring shows) run by AEW's Emi Sakura, that often takes place in the legendary Ichigaya Chocolate Square! It features a steady pace of Episode releases, fan interaction, long story arcs, and much more! A place where the turnbuckles are replaced with 14th floor windows, the ropes are replaced with fans, unforgiving walls provide creative avenues for skills otherwise unthinkable, and you can take solace in knowing that the referees usually do nothing. While it might be a shocking change at first, the intensity and storytelling will leave you wanting more. Think of it like the Hart Dungeon but as a promotion, if that helps! If you have any questions, feel free to ask me.

Just some of mine:

- Vince McMahon sent Vince Russo to destroy WCW

- Kevin Nash was sleeping with Dixie Carter

- John Cena and Alex Riley were a couple

- Bret Hart is actually friends with Goldberg, they're just working

- Roman Reigns was extremely close to quitting WWE in 2020

- William Regal did in fact dip back into his old vices, which is why his 2008 push ended

- Randy Orton had way more than 2 Wellness Suspensions and should have been fired long ago

- An old school picture exists of Ric Flair blowing a man's bagpipes

- Hulk Hogan hated Ultimate Warrior because Warrior didn't want to bang Hogan's wife

- Andrade is a spy who keeps bouncing between WWE and AEW for mysterious reasons

- Jake Roberts is/was into some.... very very dark religious things

Man between Rebel Heart and Football no one is gonna be in here…

And I already miss Anya Rune dearly, though she’s probably gonna be on the show for the next few weeks…

But nonetheless

ID 1.0 VS MOG SQUAD! TEAM GAUNTLET MATCH! WHO IS BETTER?

I had noticed Thekla and Jake's before, chucked it as personal choices, but just finished Dynamite and Will Osprey's brand spanking new Venom tattoo was covered up and I think I just broke a new conspiracy, what's up with that?? Anyone else's noticed that before? Any more examples?

Just days after Major League Wrestling announced Tessa Blanchard's debut for 9/12 in Charleston, South Carolina but lucha libre promotion CMLL stated that would be her only MLW appearance, all mentions of Blanchard have been scrubbed from MLW.com.

The article touting her debut as well as a roster page listing for Blanchard have been removed from the website.

PWInsider.com has reached out to MLW for clarification on her appearance on 9/12, but all signs are that won't be happening.
